Frameless fire-rated glazing is a glass wall where panes meet edge to edge with a tested sealant joint instead of vertical frames, held in discreet head and base channels. It gives an almost uninterrupted view while still being tested to resist fire.
Frameless fire glazing is at the top of the price range because of the glass and precision required.
Channels at the head have to allow for slab movement without loading the glass.
The sealant, joint width and any interlayer in the joint come from the test. Generic silicone in a fire glass joint is not acceptable.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Selby, including the YO8 districts, and in nearby Goole, Pontefract, York. York, around 19 km from Selby, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
